Amar’e Stoudemire Offered Shane Battier a Hand – Psych!

All, NBA, Video Stephen Douglas May 10th. 2012, 11:16am

What a perfect ending to the Heat series for Amar’e Stoudemire. Days after cutting his hand after hitting a fire extinguisher, Amar’e fouled out of the deciding game. After Shane Battier took the charge that resulted in his 6th and final foul, Amar’e offered Battier a hand and then took it away as he reached for assistance. Good for him.

I don’t think it was a psych(!) situation…I think he just felt like Battier wasn’t going to use it, so he pulled it back.
I will take 10-15 more looks at this…

dawwwwwwwwwwwwww beagle! Our twelve year old lab got into a possum nest last summer and came waltzing back to the house all smug with blood all over her face. My stepdad took a shotgun and finished them all off, she wasn’t a very efficient killer.

My beagle had four confirmed kills: 2 chipmunks (those fuckers are fast), 1 bunny, and a sea gull.
Before she got old and fat , she was pretty nimble.

Beagles are geniuses with food. When we moved from our old house my mom found a stash of candy behind her hamper. We had been finding candy wrappers randomly throughout the house for months. Little bastard had gotten into a bag of candy and hid a bunch of it then just hit up his stash when he needed a pickmeup.

Oh yeah. Nothing is ever safe. I would walk into the kitchen and he would just be standing on the island looking for food and he would see me and freeze like oh fuck. He used chairs like a goddamn springboard.
But then he got fatter. Fattened him up a bit so he couldn’t squeeze under the fence to run after smells.

My beagle stopped jumping on the island after he knocked down a pitcher of hot water my mom was making for iced tea while he was trying to go for some bread. It burned him pretty badly and left a scar. He hasn’t really jumped since then.

Our beagle went from perfectly healthy to full blown leukemia in two weeks, was super aggressive and nothing could be done so we took him camping with us and just fed him steaks and let him sit in the sun. Went in his sleep, doing what he loved.

we have a beagle terrier mix. i’m ot sure what the fuck terriers do, but the beagle in her is obvious. color and nose to the ground. and if we don’t pay attention to her hunger we wake up with our garbage and recycling strewn all over (every dog, i know). she likes to hide her chew toys/rawhide in funny places too

A couple houses down from me there’s a beagle named Duke that they always leave off leash. He’s awesome. Every once in a while when I’m chilling on the porch with my dogs, he’ll just walk up and lay down. Such a cool dog. But his “dad” is a Michigan grad. Douche.
